Paris: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan took the runway at Le Défilé L’Oréal Paris during Paris Fashion Week, delivering a striking and androgynous couture moment in a custom Manish Malhotra ensemble that reimagined the sherwani through a modern, feminine lens.
Arriving in Paris with daughter Aaradhya Bachchan, the actor set the tone with sharp, tailored separates before closing the night in an indigo sherwani embellished with diamond-embroidered cuffs, layered scalloped diamond accents cascading at the back in the style of a nau lakha haar, and animal brooches as finishing touches.
On the ramp, she paired the jeweled look with flared trousers, high heels, and minimal diamond studs, styling her hair in soft waves and opting for sleek eyeliner and a signature bold red lip to frame the dramatic silhouette.
Rai’s performance featured her signature flourish a graceful namaste, a twirl, and a flying kiss which quickly went viral across social platforms, amplifying the show’s theme of “Liberté, Égalité, Sororité” and celebrating Indian craftsmanship on a global stage.
The showcase was a star-packed affair, with global names including Andie MacDowell, Cara Delevingne, Kendall Jenner, Eva Longoria, Jane Fonda, Heidi Klum, and Cindy Bruna also taking the runway for the L’Oréal Paris presentation at the Hôtel de Ville.
